Manchester Airport Staff Vote for Strike, Causing Flight Disruptions

Former Ryanair pilot Brendan O’Meara, 62, has been charged with possessing over €10 million worth of cannabis in Ennis, Ireland. He was arrested after law enforcement seized two large pallets of drugs from his residence in Meelick on May 7, 2025. O’Meara faces serious charges, including possession for sale, which could lead to a life sentence if convicted. During a court hearing, Judge Marie Keane denied him bail, citing concerns he could flee due to alleged international connections. O’Meara, who resigned from Ryanair before his arrest, is set to reappear in court on May 14, 2025.
